Evaluating the Stability of Oxide‐Derived Cu─Sn Catalysts for CO 2 Reduction in Zero‐Gap Electrolyzers

ABSTRACT Bimetallic electrocatalysts hold substantial potential for scaling up CO 2 electroreduction, yet their practical deployment is hindered by a persistent gap between conventional three‐electrode testing and industrially relevant electrolyzer conditions. In this study, we e...

Sensitivity Study of the Reactivity-Equivalent Physical Transformation Method for Fluoride Salt Coolant Pebble Bed Reactor Lattice

Conventional dispersed-particle fuel systems, such as TRISO fuel, exhibit typical double heterogeneity. The Reactivity-equivalent Physical Transformation (RPT) method can convert a double-heterogeneity system into a single-heterogeneity system by simplified geometric modelling. I...

Tracking the baryon number with nuclear collisions

Baryon quantum number is found to be conserved since baryogenesis in the early Universe. Conventionally, each fractionally charged valence quark is understood to carry one-third of a baryon number. An alternative hypothesis posits that baryon number is instead carried by a baryon...

A dual role of PIEZO2 in neuropathic pain: driving peripheral sensitization and enabling mechanical loading-induced analgesia

Mechanotherapy, a form of mechanical loading (ML), effectively relieves tactile allodynia-associated neuropathic pain by targeting sensitization points stimulated by PIEZO2, a mechanosensitive ion channel. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying peripheral sensitization and...
